An Encoder is an electromechanical device that converts motion or position into a digital signal, enabling precise control in automation systems. It detects the position, speed, direction, or rotation of shafts and axes and sends this feedback to controllers such as PLCs, drives, or motion controllers.
Encoders play a vital role in achieving accuracy and repeatability in automated processes. They are available in various types, including rotary encoders (incremental and absolute) and linear encoders, each suited to different motion control applications.
